What are the conveyancing costs?
The solicitors' fees for handling your conveyance vary dramatically depending on whether you approach an online conveyancing solicitor, a high street conveyancer or housing solicitors introduced by your estate agent.
The actual conveyancing costs, outside of the legal work, should be fixed as they are set including:
For buyers: stamp duty, land registration, property searches, ID searches and leasehold charges (if buying a leasehold property).
For sellers: office copies, title plan and management information (if selling a leasehold property).
It is important to make sure when budgeting the costs of moving home that you factor in all of the above conveyancing costs and ensure you get a fixed fee conveyancing quote from your chosen local solicitors or licensed conveyancer.
Whether you're a cash buyer or buying with a mortgage solicitors are key to the whole process, making the right choice critically important.

Can you exchange contracts as soon as you have an offer accepted?
If your vendor is willing to do so as well, technically you can exchange contract on the day you have your offer accepted as a buyer; this is often termed an attended exchange of contracts, but you should be extremely wary of doing so.
This option is invariably only open to cash buyers; mortgage lenders expect the process to take longer so that safeguards such as property searches can be returned and there is a reasonable time period for the buyer's solicitor to make enquiries and for the answers to be returned.
An attended exchange of contracts:
- is more expensive than for standard conveyancing;
- puts more pressure on the solicitors from both sides to 'get it right' in a reduced period of time; and
- makes it a huge challenge to carry out the normal checks on a property being sold.
The advantages are clearly that, assuming all goes well, both sides will complete a property transaction in a far shorter time scale than normal so the buyer gets their property and the seller gets the requisite funds. This is not an option to be taken lightly, for the reasons stated.
